    Event description

    Place |  Mindy Meng Wang and Sonus Ensemble


    Travel to places both familiar and imagined through the compositions of Geelong-based composer Kym Dillon, brought to life by the breathtaking sounds of Mindy Meng Wang on guzheng and Sonus Ensemble.

    PLACE presents two original compositions, rhapsody/postcard and Djilang 5x5. Commissioned by NEAL (New and Experimental Arts Laboratory, rhapsody/postcard layers the unique sound of guzheng extraordinaire Mindy Meng Wang over the wind instruments of Sonus Ensemble.

    Commissioned by the City of Greater Geelong for Sonus Ensemble, Djilang 5x5 was created in consultation with Wadawurrung elder Corrina Eccles. This work journeys through Lakes Connewarre and Modewarre, the You Yangs, Moorabool Street, and the meeting point of the Barwon and Moorabool rivers, exploring how one’s perception of a place evolves when hearing from those who know its story best.

    This will be the second performance of Djilang 5x5, following its sell-out premiere in 2021.


    Compositions by Kym Dillon, commissioned by the New and Experimental Arts Laboratory (NEAL) and City of Greater Geelong.
